Thomas Alfred Hoff, of Brookville, was born on August 28, 1935 in Bath, Indiana, the son of John A. and Mary Bischoff Hoff. He served his country with the United States Navy and the National Guard. Thomas married Regina Ann Fehlinger on August 6, 1960 at St. Michael Church in Brookville. Thomas was a lifetime farmer and worked at Wal-Mart in Oxford, Ohio. He was a member of St. Michael Church and the Brookville Knights of Columbus Council #1010. Thomas will be remembered for his generous caring demeanor, his jokester attitude and giving his grandchildren nicknames – which earned him the title of “Silly Goofy Grandpa.” On Monday, May 8, 2017, at the age of 81, he passed away at McCullough Hyde Health in Oxford, Ohio.
